It feels, as you indicate, like an outside observer looking in on RJ's creation, rather than the creator. I find that I agree with you - he doesn't feel as comfortable with the world.
And, yes, "workaday" stood out to me, because I'm not quite sure that word fits within the framework of the words RJ used to describe things.

This is not RJ's writing. (No Spoilers)

Could it be rough draft that Sanderson kept, and Jordan never polished? *NM*

Agree fully. Art and paiting have rarely even been mentioned! It feels like a fan's writing...

No. It was never meant to be, it never could be and Sanderson never pretended otherwise.
